Be Excellent To Each Other

Looking at the teardowns its a universal psu that just needs a cable switch. Doesn't refer to your us issue though Dave.

99% sure I know this. In the theoretical circumstance that I returned home from Canada and discovered a ps4 in my luggage, I can either swap a uk plug cable onto the power pack (I assume there's a power pack with standard flex) or just run it through a travel adaptor when I'm home. Right?

It'll be a mini IEC lead (figure of 8 rather than kettle). I probably have one if you want me to send it to you?

Ta. I've got about ten myself though.

"Oooh, get me! I've got loads of leads!"

BBC's Genome Project offers radio and TV archive listings

the BBC has launched a test version of an online searchable catalogue of its TV and radio programme broadcasts.

The Genome Project is based on scans of Radio Times magazine listings published between 1923 and 2009. Searches bring up a synopsis, a cast list and an edit button.

It is designed to help the BBC identify programmes missing from its recorded archive and try to find copies of them.

A total of 4,423,654 programmes are included, from 4,469 issues.

The scheme was given its name because the corporation likens each of it programmes to "tiny pieces of BBC DNA" that will form a "data spine" once reassembled.

Most of the BBC's early output was not recorded, and later many shows were destroyed or wiped over.

The hope is that the project will lead to programmes being recovered if the public realises they have audio or video recordings of their own.

Specific shows can be searched for, alternatively visitors can browse the issue archive by year, providing a way to see old Radio Times covers.

The archivists said they expected searches for old Doctor Who episodes to prove particularly popular.

"Genome is the closest we currently have to a comprehensive broadcast history of the BBC," said Hilary Bishop, editor of archive development at the BBC.

"It is highly likely that somewhere out there, in lofts, sheds and basements across the world, many of these 'missing' programmes will have been recorded and kept by generations of TV and radio fans.

"So, we're hoping to use Genome as a way of bringing copies of those lost programmes back in to the BBC archives too."

The next step is to cross reference the Genome Project with the corporation's other records.

At this point, however, there are no details on the search results about whether a programme is missing.
Catalogue errors

Ultimately, the intention is that Genome will also provide photos, scripts and other materials held by the BBC.

For now, it allows the BBC's own staff to download a PDF of the relevant Radio Times magazine, however this facility is not currently available to others.

However, the archivists involved acknowledge that the project does not currently take account of changes to the scheduled broadcast - including coverage of the assassination, in 1963, of President John F Kennedy - and recognise other limitations with the current database.

"We know the data contains errors and we're asking for your help to find and fix them," said Andy Armstrong, an engineer involved in the project.

"We know, for example, that some programmes are currently showing up on the wrong days due to OCR [optical character recognition] errors on the dates.

"We also have work to do to make the site even more accessible to screen readers and other assistive technologies.

"And smartphone users may notice certain challenges with the current version of the site - it's better in landscape than in portrait. Sorry. It's on the list. We're working on it."

The team added it also planned to add regional shows not yet included.

The BBC has not said how much the project has cost, although a spokesman said that "any decisions were made with value for money for audiences at its core".

Myp?

If Myp is Nuno Mendes he's cooking fucking dinner on Saturday.

I'm installing it on my Mid-2012 Macbook Pro (2.3 Ghz i7, 4GB Ram) as we speak type.

I forsee no major issues.

In that case, thank you Myp for giving me extra chocolate mushroom truffles in that paper cone you fashioned out of a napkin so I could take them home for my daughter. FYI, she didn't like them at all. But it's the thought that counts.

You hipster cunt.

are you sure it isn' your controller. Mine does the same thing occasionally.

Pistorius gets ten months.

But Delia is wrong when it comes to toast. A toast rack dries the toast out way too much, it's like eating concentrated dust. You need a bit of steam from putting it on a plate to make it a little softer.

That's why God invented butter.

I like to leave mine in the toaster for a minute to keep warm and rid some steam, then butter/whatever. But everyone likes their toast differently and that's only one of the reasons you do not need a recipe.

Toast should be reasonably soggy, with a pool of melted butter running off the sides when you pick it up

Warbutons thins are amazing.
